Pain of Salvation
! (Foreword)
[Intro]
Walk with me
There are worlds to see
[Verse 1]
Listen to me now, you
Listen to me now, you
Do my words mean more to hear
When I am standing here?
On a stage like all your silly idols do
[Verse 2]
Open up your eyes, all
Let your walls and grins fall
Would you reach for something new
If the crowds were reaching too?
Are you close enough to taste their tears at all?
Your hate is but a worn-out lover, sick and sear
"Rape me again!", you beg in pain, dear friend
"But hey, just don't stop! The stillness makes me scared, oh."
[Verse 3]
Listen to my plain words
That's all you'll get from me: words
The rest is up to you
Would you dare to let me through?
Are you brave enough to leave me in control?
[Pre-Chorus]
You're all afraid
[Chorus 1]
I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid of you
I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid anymore
I am a shipwrecked swept ashore
[Verse 3]
Life won't wash away your sins
Life can't wash away your guilt, oh no
Life will only make your conscience wilt
[Bridge 1]
Oh, somewhere a child just died
Yet another victim for man's endless strife
World could be better than this
There are so many ways to leave a life
Would you claim you live yours right?
Right?! No!
[Bridge 2]
Take a stand
World is in your hand
[Chorus 2]
I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid of you
I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid of you
I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid of you
I'm not afraid, we're just the same, me and you
The same me and you (Walk with me)
I see myself in you
